Who this trial is looking for
This trial is looking for young women aged 18-24 in Kahramanmaraş to help understand how different education methods about HPV can affect their willingness to get vaccinated. Participants will receive information through a video or in-person sessions and will answer some questions before, immediately after, and one month after the education.

Detailed Description Human papillomavirus (HPV) is one of the leading causes of cervical cancer and can be prevented by vaccination. However, HPV vaccination rates among young women are low, largely due to insufficient knowledge and misconceptions about HPV and the vaccine. Therefore, an effective educational program may improve both knowledge and vaccination intention.

Detailed Description Human papillomavirus (HPV) is one of the leading causes of cervical cancer and can be prevented by vaccination. However, HPV vaccination rates among young women are low, largely due to insufficient knowledge and misconceptions about HPV and the vaccine. Therefore, an effective educational program may improve both knowledge and vaccination intention.
The aim of this randomized controlled trial is to examine the effect of delivering HPV education through different methods (asynchronous online education delivered via a pre-recorded video and face-to-face education) on HPV knowledge level and HPV vaccination intention among women aged 18-24 years.
The study will be conducted with women aged 18-24 years registered at Family Health Centers in the Afşin district of Kahramanmaraş, Türkiye. Eligible participants will be randomly assigned into three groups: the video-based education group, the face-to-face education group, and the control group.
Data will be collected using the Participant Information Form, HPV Knowledge Scale, and HPV Vaccination Attitude and Intention Form. Measurements will be performed at three time points: before the education (pre-test), immediately after the education (post-test), and one month after the education (follow-up test). The video-based education group will receive the education via a pre-recorded online video, while the face-to-face group will receive the same content in person at the Family Health Center. No education will be provided to the control group; only measurements will be obtained.
Research Questions
Does HPV education delivered through different methods increase HPV knowledge levels among young women?
Does HPV education increase HPV vaccination intention compared with the control group?
Is face-to-face education more effective than video-based education in increasing vaccination intention?
Are the improvements in knowledge and vaccination intention sustained one month after the education?
